A recent addition to the music world, the band released an EP in 2004, Ich Hab Die Nacht Getraeumet, which contained five tracks, including two versions of the title track.
In 2005, Heimataerde was signed by Metropolis Records, and their album, Gotteskrieger, was released by the label in April. The album is state of the art harsh EBM/industrial with beats designed to take the underground dance floors by storm. While musically Heimataerde is much in the vein of legendary dark EBM acts like older Wumpscut and Suicide Commando, the music does have its own unique identity, and a modern, up to date sound. With tracks like "Gib Mir" and "Ich Hab Die Nacht Getraeumet" already taking over the dance floors all over the world, Heimataerde has already laid the groundwork for its club invasion.
In August 2006, the next album, Kadavergehorsam was released and ties seamlessly into Heimataerde's prior works.
In 2008, the most recent album Leben Geben Leben Nehmen was released.
As of Late September 2009, there is an upcoming album "Unwesen", and trailers for the album can be seen at http://www.myspace.com/heimataerde

Heimataerde Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Das Lebenslicht wich voller Schmerz
Es reißt heraus mein blutig Herz
Der Wind er sagt, es ist nun aus
Der Koerper ruht in meinem Arm
Dampf steigt hinauf er ist noch warm
Du bleibst bei mir, ich schrei's heraus

Heimataerde heimataerde

Die Glut in ihr sie nun erlischt
Erfüllt mein Sein nun ewiglich
Der Wind er sagt, sie ist mit dir
Ins Himmelreich nun eingekehrt
Sie wird zum Teil der Heimaterd
Nun ewiglich ein Stueck von mir

Heimataerde heimataerde
